UFE > MCAT & losing my 407 virginity.

Alrighties ladies and gents.

UFE is just about 12 hours away. In light of that, I thought I'd finally get around to posting my UFE vs. MCAT post. =D (all in good fun. don't be offended, healthy people =p)


Time:
UFE: 13 hours over 3 days. no breaks during each sitting (5hours / 4hours / 4hours)
MCAT: 5 hours & 20 mins. AND 4x 10 minute breaks?

Subjects:
UFE: 7 total - Performance measurement & reporting; Assurance; Taxation; Finance; Management Decision Making; Pervasive Qualities; Governance, strategy and risk management
MCAT: 4 total - Biological sciences; physical sciences; verbal reasoning & writing

Pass/Fail:
UFE: Straight up Pass or Fail. There's actually THREE different ways to fail on the UFE (see image)
MCAT: You just get a scale 'rating' & a number back...


Marking:
UFE: 3 month marking period
MCAT: 1 month marking period

Results:
UFE: Determines whether you'll get a professional designation or not
MCAT: just something you need to get into SOME schools (you don't even need MCAT to get into some med schools!!!!)


Haha. No hate to science people =p. Just wanted to have some fun. UFE and MCAT are completely different exams for different purposes, I know =p. haha. But in all honesty, UFE has definitely been a pretty intense prep period... but I'm super excited just to get it out of the way and move on in life... assuming I pass =|. oh dear.

Losing my 407 virginity

UFE is tomorrow and the writing center is the International center in Sauga.. which I've never even heard of/been to, so I decided to wake up early today and find out where it is so that I'm not wasting time being lost tomorrow. Just took a few pics along the way. Definitely a nice morning drive.

Bright morning sunshine:

FIRST 407 DRIVE EVVVAAAAAARRRRR

How about I take a picture of YOU. how do you like it... HUH?

Just... long... open.. road... *drool*


Where dreams are made... (who am I kidding. no one dreams of being an accountant =p)

I think it said there was a Revlon/Johnson&Johnson sale in the room beside us.


The parking lot was so big and empty... so I did a mini autocross to take advantage of it =D.

It was nice and crisp outside so decided to take a quick pic of my car.



Since last time I took photos on the road people starting reminding me of the no handheld law... let's just pretend I had a passenger documenting the trip for me. yah? awesome.

weeeeee in any case - That's it for tonight. UFE countdown - 12 hours.

Good luck to all my fellow UFE writers. put on your game face andddd yeah. see y'all on the flip side.
